A Baltimore City rental inspection evaluates specific safety and habitability items for licensing. The city checklist records pass or fail results, with certain concerns referred to DHCD for review. Select an area to see what is checked.
From the appointment to your next licensing step, here’s what to expect.

Your inspector evaluates the required items and records the results. For multifamily buildings, the visit also covers the applicable common areas.
Use your completed city form for the licensing process. If items fail, arrange corrections and confirm the reinspection steps with our office.
Shared spaces are part of the inspection too. Unit sampling depends on the building’s size and the city’s guidance.
Work with a team that makes the findings clear and the next step easier. Our inspectors are licensed, continuously trained, and backed by general liability and errors and omissions insurance.
A little preparation can make your inspection day much simpler.

No. This is a licensing inspection using Baltimore City’s required checklist. A residential home inspection provides a broader evaluation for a buyer or homeowner.
The city requires a Maryland-licensed home inspector registered with Baltimore City DHCD to perform rental licensing inspections.
Arrange access with your tenants, make sure utilities are on, and review the city checklist. Keep equipment, windows, and exit routes accessible so the inspector can evaluate them.
Arrange the necessary repairs, then contact our office about reinspection. Some concerns require DHCD review. A passing inspection supports your application; DHCD issues the license.
The city’s guidance determines how many units are inspected and how they are distributed across the property. Share the building and unit count when booking so the scope can be confirmed.

Baltimore uses a tiered licensing system tied to the property’s maintenance and violation history. Check the term and renewal date on your city-issued license. See the city’s licensing requirements for details.
